He said you could marry any of your allies, ergo there is gay marriage.

About time, Japan!

Unfortunately it seems that the comment in question was only meant to describe the MU's options (makes sense since you can choose your own gender so you theoretically have your choice on the matter), everybody else is apparently hetro (though you never know).

Well apparently, while gay marriages are out, gay relationships aren't (as well as the occasional incest, even if some of it is only one sided

Code:

(Dammit Krom!)

).

Also apparently, there are some characters who won't get married to anybody aside from your MU (which basically means that they have no kids of their own since the MU's kid is fixed (unless it works like FE4 where it's the female who makes the kid and the male determines hair color and stats/skills inheritance)). Additionally, and unsurprisingly, Krom will be forced to get married at some point, even if it means hooking up with a generic female NPC. It looks like the playable unit count is up to 40 (27 units and 13 kids) with the possibility of more being unlocked under special circumstances.

Furthermore, there's a video of the first stage out on Youtube. Apparently the game starts on a rather interesting note.

Code:

It explains why your MU has amnesia as well as what all the time fuckery is about along with why that Jaffar wannabe has such terrible stats despite his prominence in the promotional material thus far.

Yeah, I think I might really like this one, since one of my biggest problems with FE10 was that it felt way too bare-bones alongside the more modern FE games, in a bad way. The MU in Shin Monsho wasn't really enough to convince me to bother with it much, either.

Since they're keeping MU and combining a bunch of cool ideas they've had in the past, I want to see how it works together.

Goddamn do Roy and Leaf look goofy. At the very least though, we can finally say "Yes. Marth and Roy are in it." Plus Roy doesn't look like he's 12 so that's something.

An amusing note so far is that one of the kids starts off as a female mercenary making her the second character in the entire series to fill that niche (and the first not to get retconned into a myrmidon). Another amusing note is that another kid is the goddamn Nightwing.

Additionally there's a video out for the first DLC stage.

Code:

Your team is on the first map from the first game alongside Marth, Arum, and Ike as you take on pretty much every playable leading female throughout the series (i.e. Caeda, Cellica, Diadora, Julia, Lilina, Lyn, Erika, Elincia, and Micaiah) while both the stage and battle music are not only the same as the original's but they're even in chiptune format as well.

Ah. So that's why Roy looks like that. All that not-brown color threw me off (the lack of crocs didn't help things either). Now I can't not see Roy running around alongside Caim, hacking through wave after wave of Empire mooks, and building an A ranked support with Arioch.
